The FEST was supposed to be held on September 17-18, but due to the COVID restrictions in place, the event has been rescheduled for February 25 and 26, 2022.
The Stawell Performing Arts Company Committee said they are looking forward to the opportunity to hold the event in the future.
"Even with the easing of restrictions in regional Victoria the impact of current restrictions was considered too great to be able to provide the kind of opportunities planned for our community to come together and enjoy the performances and workshops planned," they said.
